The most recent webinar in our Employment Rights Act 2025 series was on 'Trade unions – key changes and actions for employers' in which we discussed the new right for trade unions to access workplaces and the new duty on employers to provide workers with a statement of trade union rights.

From 30 October 2026, trade unions will gain new statutory rights to seek both digital and physical access to workplaces under the government's Make Work Pay plan.
